American workers just took home their smallest share of the nation's wealth since 1947 — even as corporate profits soar.

Why? This chart has the answer.

NEW: A federal judge in Oregon issued a sweeping rebuke of the Justice Department’s nationwide push to seize state voter rolls, ruling that the department can no longer be presumed to be acting in good faith and warning that its conduct threatens voters and states’ rights.
Federal judge rules DOJ can ‘no longer’ be trusted in voter roll crusade
The judge pointed to a letter from Bondi to Minnesota that tied federal immigration enforcement to demands for voter data as the smoking gun.

This book was so good. It was a family reunion combined with “And Then There Were None”. There is an unreliable narrator which makes it all the more mysterious. #booksky #daisydarker #alicefeeney

I am quote posting this because Gladys Mae West deserves her flowers. 💐 RIP
No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientist—because the person felt she did didn’t deserve the recognition.

Which just makes me want to share it again: www.nature.com/articles/d41...
Gladys Mae West obituary: mathematician who pioneered GPS technology
She made key contributions to US cold-war science despite facing huge barriers as a Black woman.

I love thrift stores.This shop was big and I found a cashmere shawl/ poncho. So warm! So soft! Buying second-hand is a great way to boycott companies that are not aligned with your ethics for whatever reason. #thriftstorefinds #thrifthaul #sustainablefashion #shopsecondhandfirst #cashmere

Luttig: It doesn’t matter what the Supreme Court does from this point forward. For two years, the Supreme Court has authorized the absolute lawlessness and unconstitutional activity of this president.

This is a fun look at the Bible & how it’s written and organized. He dives into the weird, confusing, funny stories & explains the hidden historical and cultural meanings. It’s very entertaining. #booksky #whatisthebible #robbell

Chris Murphy: “He’s telling you he wants to federalize national elections — he's telling you that he thinks he won Minnesota & Georgia & California, that the 2020 elections were rigged—

He’s trying to rewrite history & trying to make sure that nobody other than him & his allies win in 2026 & 2028”

You don’t have to become a liberal or a conservative. You don’t have to join a movement. You just have to decide that the Constitution matters more than any one politician’s career. Read: cbwrong.blogspot.com/2026/02/ever...

Why do we have so much stuff? This is a short book but it gives great guidance about down-sizing and decluttering before you have a crisis. #thegentleartofswedishdeathcleanin#booksky

How did they redact abusers but not the victims? And they expect us to believe 40 nude photos went unnoticed?

That’s exactly why people think the DOJ did this on purpose, to shame these women for coming forward.

This, along with the seizure of ballots and voting data, is another massive red flag for Americans: This is the kind of thing authoritarians say and do when they are preparing to rig the vote.

They are preparing to steal your vote, and you have to take action now to stop them.
